Danger, suspense, stunning race horses, #RomanticSuspense #FreeDownload #MFRWAuthor

April 11, 2018 by Adriana Kraft 1 Comment

Danger, suspense, stunning race horses, courageous heroines, and the complicated men who love them!

Growing up, I was a horse-crazy little girl who devoured every book I could find about riding, grooming, caring for a horse, horse breeds, horse fiction… I could never understand why my parents refused to buy me a horse. But on my ninth birthday, they gave me a huge surprise. Ahead of time, they mowed a path among the blackberry bushes in our back field, and in the middle of the birthday party, a van and trailer from the local pony ring showed up with my favorite pony and pony rides for everyone present. I was in heaven!

For me, “horse-crazy” and “romantic” have always gone hand in hand. Luckily, as an adult, I met and married Mr. Kraft, who shares both attributes. We’d been married over a decade when a colleague at work, who was a small-time horse trainer on the side, offered us a deal we couldn’t refuse. We bought in, he and Mr. Kraft made the trek to Barrett’s sale in California, and we became co-owners of two thoroughbred race horses.

In real life, that’s not a money-making business for most folks. We’d no sooner stabled them with our friend than one of them (the more expensive one, of course), bowed a tendon. That ended her racing career before it even started, but she still proved valuable as a brood mare down the line.

So perhaps it’s no surprise that when we started writing romance together, we set our first stories in the world of horse racing, where we could give our plucky heroines far more success in the racing world than we’d had. Riders Up, our four book romantic suspense series, is the result.

    Just downloaded a copy of Cassie’s Hope. Thanks!

    I grew up riding horses, too. My friends all had horses–we didn’t have cars as teenagers. We rode everywhere together. Well, I guess we had about a 7 mile range in any direction. 😉

    Only one of us still has horses. I haven’t ridden in years, but oh, the memories.

    I read horse tales too.The book, ” A Pony for the Winter” sticks out in my childhood memories. 🙂
